Candice Renoir, Season 9 (France)

If you're not caught up through season 8, you may want to skip the description of what's ahead in season 9.

This fun French crime drama returns, and we find Candice disciplined for hiding Antoine's amnesia. She's not allowed to take part in any investigations and is told to either end her relationship with her superior or be transferred to the other end of France. She's reduced to performing administrative tasks, sidelined in a tiny ground floor office.

Now, her unit is headed up by a woman called Penelope Vallier – and Candice doesn't like it one bit. As she bides her time and plots a comeback, she's careful to keep a safe distance from Antoine and his manly allure.

Catch up on earlier seasons HERE.

July 29th Premieres

Signora Volpe, Season 2

Former British spy Sylvia Fox (Emilia Fox, Silent Witness) has discovered a new way of life in Italy, but murder is never far off. As she renovates her lovely countryside home, works on relations with her family, and gets to know the handsome Capitano Riva (Giovanni Cirfiera, The Assassination of Gianni Versace), she uses her well-honed spy skills to get to the bottom of all sorts of nasty business.

Episodes will air weekly, with a total of three feature-length episodes in season 2

July 29th, Episode 1 – When a pillar of the local community is found dead at the charity he runs, Antonella’s friend Vittoria is arrested on suspicion of his murder. Antonella asks Sylvia to help prove Vittoria’s innocence – and sends Sylvia off on a trail of blackmail, family secrets, and illicit love. Though Vittoria is cleared of the murder and another criminal is brought to justice, Antonella is disappointed by Sylvia’s failure to unmask the real killer. But Sylvia has uncovered the truth, and for honorable reasons, decides to keep it hidden.
